 		 #175743 - obviously a comparator is a better solution
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The NXP appnote is specific to LCP line of micros which have on-chip comparator, how can that solution be far better or applicable to AT89S52 which doesn't have an on-chip comparator
obviously a comparator is a better solution than a logic input and if you want a better solution, then use the better suited micro (which, by the way, sell for <$0.50 in qty)

in the NXP appnote the Live wire is connected directly to micro's VCC and how can "that" not be dangerous
whether uC Vcc or uC gnd is connected to the live wire makes no difference, you will get injured/killed when you touch regardless.

next thing you asked me was to change the micro itself to LCP, if that was an option, then i would have gone with an AVR like Atmega8 or something.
fine if they have a comparator

Erik

PS do not confuse the LCP9xx ('51 type) with the LCP2xxx (ARM type)

   DANGER!! Don't Try This At Home!            01/01/70 00:00      
      Its not just Atmel            01/01/70 00:00      
   interrupts on both edges            01/01/70 00:00      
      Thank you All            01/01/70 00:00      
         Read about external Gate for Timer            01/01/70 00:00      
            gate for timer            01/01/70 00:00      
               Jan, will you Shhhhh!!!            01/01/70 00:00      
               Great Idea !            01/01/70 00:00      
                  But i've used up INT0 and INT1 pins            01/01/70 00:00      
                     int0 is gate for timer0            01/01/70 00:00      
                     T1(T0) pin is not use here            01/01/70 00:00      
                        so only one Ext.int pin will do            01/01/70 00:00      
                           i think so            01/01/70 00:00      
                              I haven't tried it yet            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 is a Zener that costly?            01/01/70 00:00      
                                 so try something safely            01/01/70 00:00      
                                    That the most exhaustive reply i got so far !            01/01/70 00:00      
                                       You are wellcome            01/01/70 00:00
